FMAS:25 has concluded with resounding success, delighting both companies and traders alike. Drawing record-breaking attendance, the event brought together online trading professionals for two days of exhibitions, networking, and learning. As a returning media partner, Contentworks Agency caught up with the organisers.
A Platform of Influence and Scale
From the opening keynote to the final workshop, FMAS:25 was a showcase of thought leadership at the highest level. Over 2,200 attendees gathered at the summit, making it the most attended FMAS edition to date. Among the crowd were C-level executives and decision-makers across multiple sectors of the online trading industry. These included brokers, fintechs, paytechs and regtechs, seeking the ideal solutions and partnerships for their online trading brand.
FMAS is the gold standard of the industry. Its quality and organisation generates interest in whatever city it moves to.

As a B2C summit, FMAS:25 also welcomed a variety of traders, ranging from curious beginners to seasoned veterans. The diverse nature of the traders only helped emphasise the fact that the summit truly had something for everyone.
FMAS is different compared to anything else we have been doing — we’ve done expos and other activities, but with FMAS, we just get the right audience.
